Engineering a chain reaction: Global Azure at the Microsoft Reactors Share Written By Rik Hepworth Tags 2023Global Azure 2023-05-05 We've always had a great relationship with Microsoft throughout all the years we have run Global Azure. This year, Microsoft offered the support of leveraging their Reactor spaces worldwide to help with Global Azure 2023. Located in major cities around the world and accessible online, the Reactors provide free content for the broader developer community and in 12 locations around the globe, space for Microsoft and community-led events year round. The key principle that we stick to in the Global Azure team: By the community, for the community. Any events must be run by the community, not by Microsoft. Each and every one of our events is run by an Azure community. The Azure community decides what kind of event it should be and places their pin on our map as part of the three day festival that is Global Azure. This year, we reached out to community leaders, asking if they would be interested in leveraging a local Reactor space and many did. We are excited about this partnership. Thank you to all of the members of the Azure community who raised their hands and volunteered to get involved. As a result, over the three days of Global Azure 2023, there are community-organised events running in almost all of the Microsoft Reactors worldwide. But wait, there's more! The Reactors have teamed up with the Microsoft Azure Developers YouTube channel and you can watch sessions from each of the reactors online! Here is a handy playlist with each of the Reactor events. The Global Azure team would like to say a very big thank you to the organisers of these events, and to Microsoft for making the space available and enabling them to stream live. Here are all the Reactors that have events over the three days of Global Azure 2023, with direct links to streaming content.
